Unhappy Early S Code

Hello all,

Presenting my only KH.........( there are not that many of those here up North !! ) A well used ( & abused ?? ) pistol showing heavy pitts......

SN 717, Early toggle markings, coarse checkered wood grips......



Interesting features are the strawed recoil lever...



....and ``worst finish`` I've seen on a mainspring guide !! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />



.....yes it's the guide from this pistol, E/2 Proofs...



Lastly, the ``no witness mark`` common to KH pistols. Bore is 8.84 Most of my other P08s are tighter....



Other oddities found: strawed H.O with white top, Strawed extractor with blued top.....What happened when KH started production......

Shown for information purposes only as I know she wont win a beauty contest........ <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
